Blue and Gold Banquet

I didn't get any good pictures from tonight.  Drat!  After volunteering in Preston's class I went and helped set up for the banquet tonight.  It was a Luau theme.  Ashley is the cub master and she is amazing. Everything looked so great!  As soon as Mike came home we went to set up the snow cone machine.  We were supposed to do the snow cones while they kids were playing a few games, but it didn't work out that way. After dinner Ashley had her aunt teach the boys the haka dance. Ashley's aunt is Polynesian.  The boys and their dads learned the dance. It was so cute to watch!  Preston did not want me to take any pictures during the dance.  He paid more attention to me making sure I wasn't taking pictures than to what he was suppose to do!  The dance went a little long so Ashley said, "Grab a snow cone before you leave!" Yikes! All of a sudden we had a gigantic line.  It wasn't bad though.  Judy helped me with the syrup.  The kids really liked it.

Maysen, Stockton and Jorja had a combined video service scavenger hunt for their activity today.  They weren't too incredibly excited about it.  All three of them had a great time.  Yay!  They picked their groups by picking a sucker out of a bag.  They were all in different groups. Stockton's team came in 2nd place.  Sue was with Maysen's team. (Preston ran up to Sue and wouldn't stop hugging her.  Made her cry.) Ebony was with Jorja.  They had to do things like hug a fireman, help someone pump gas, take a picture by the A, run a lap, shake hands with a full time missionary, take a picture of a fish tank.  Those are the only ones I can remember.  I'm glad they had such a good time.  Today was a win for everyone!
